Second battery for the Wi-Fi router!  The idea now is to have the smart

Soon hacker thieves will be able to use their smartphones to steal your car.
They are already hacking proximity key fobs to do this.

Speaking of things we don't need ...

Why did my friends rental Chevy come with a second battery in the trunk?
